Adirondacks, New York, Resource Guides

Bog River
State-owned lands along the Bog River between Lows Lower and Upper dams and at Lows Lake offer canoeists a unique opportunity to enjoy over 14.5 miles of unencumbered scenic waters with only one short carry around Lows Upper Dam. For the more adventuresome, a carry of approximately 3.5 miles from the west end of Lows Lake to the Oswegatchie River will be rewarded with an approximately 16-mile trip down that river to Inlet, with only a short carry above High Falls. Numerous beaver dams occur around High Falls. To add to the serenity of the area, motorized boats are prohibited between the two dams.Primary public access to the area is by a short gravel road off State Rt. 421 to Lows Lower Dam, where a canoe may be launched. This road may be gated in the spring to protect it during frost-out. Alternate canoe access is available at Horseshoe Lake Outlet.

Lake Lila
The 7,215 acre Lake Lila Primitive Area is in the Town of Long Lake. Lake Lila is the chief feature of this area. Covering about 1,400 acres, the lake offers superb opportunities for canoeing and camping under essentially wilderness conditions. Visitors will find giant white pines along the shoreline of Lake Lila, several natural white sand beaches, and seven islands in the lake. Camping is permitted on the four larger islands. The area surrounding Lake Lila is considered excellent wildlife habitat. Fishing in Lake Lila includes brook trout, lake trout, landlocked salmon, smallmouth bass and yellow perch.To reach the Primitive Area, take State Route 30 to Hamilton County Route 10, turn west and proceed about seven miles to an improved gravel road (Lake Lila Rd.) This intersection is marked with a DEC sign. Turn left and proceed about six miles to a 30-car DEC parking area. Overnight parking is permitted. Parking of trailers is prohibited.
